a trailer of a new season!

A change of a season. In Morocco, it would always happen around some big events - a trip to a foreign country, a change of a an apartment, meeting some new interesting people, a clarification of the planes for the future or at the very end the ultimate sadness of leaving and the supreme happiness of having experienced that fabulous life of Al-Maghrib. A season would change every 2-3 months.

I have been to Belgium for exactly 2 months and it is time to finish the first (dull and lame) season. I am going to Paris for the weekend and to Istanbul for another long (and prolonged by taking additional 2 days of leave) weekend (2 trips!). I have started having more new friends (meeting new people). These are at least two signs of a new season. And I can smell it is coming. I am going through a great week followed by great weekend. The job is going fine - busy and challenging but not over-stressing. The social schedule is even more busy. A glass of red wine with a friend, an Indian dinner with some other people, some fancy opening of a fancy new place, another dinner and a Halloween theme party. Everything is also within a reasonable budget. And a piece of a cherry on the cake - Paris for the weekend.

I hope it's more than a good week - I don't feel this kind of emptiness, sadness and restlessness anymore. It's more like in a movie now.

And I can simply smell the new season. You can see the TV spots but they are not that clear or direct. One of the best way to advertise new things is to give limited information to the target group, release some gossips, make people speak about it etc. Then you can be sure of a lot of attention paid to the advertised product. That is what life is doing right now with me. It is conveying a vague message. The picture is obvious to me despite its unclearness. I can feel it.

The new season is coming...
